Turn Accessibility Features On or Off

With accessibility features, you can magnify the screen on your Fire phone. You can also navigate your
phone using shortcuts, and hear spoken feedback about the items you touch and open.
Important: The accessibility features on Fire phone are designed for users with vision, hearing, or
mobility impairments. If you turn on an accessibility feature, your phone may function differently (such as

Touch.
